The Bismarck-Mandan Community

Bismarck-Mandan combines the progressive technology of a large city with the sincere friendliness of a small town. The basic elements for a happy life, clean living, true friendships, a community of families, fresh air environment are still found here.

Located in the center of North Dakota, with a trade area of 150,000, our cities form a busy hub for many key industries, including medical, retail, government, telecommunications and agriculture. Bismarck has the largest K-12 school system in the state and the high quality of our education is reflected in the above average national test scores of our children.

The Bismarck Civic Center draws top-name entertainment and sporting events. Arts and culture also thrive in galleries and community theaters.

If you love sports, the area offers a multitude of choices for all ages, whether you're an active participant or armchair spectator, six area golf courses, cross country and downhill skiing, indoor ice hockey and indoor tennis are just a sampling. Located an hour north is Lake Sakakawea, one of the largest bodies of water in the Midwest. Challenging sailing and world-class walleye and salmon fishing give you wonderful reasons to be outdoors.

Bismarck is just a few short miles away from upland, waterfowl and big game hunting.

Whether you like to boat, sunbathe, throw out a fishing line, bird watch or just relax and enjoy, the shores of the Missouri River are waiting for you.

Shopping, shopping, shopping at the malls, downtown or around and about our cities it's here.

We are blessed with four seasons and each one offers its special pleasures.
